Op here: you can’t do it with plain js Plus it’s ok to use frameworks according to the tweet
Care to elaborate? There are some nifty tricks when it comes to golfing JS.
Well sorry I was in a hurry when I typed the above comment
Well the body can’t have any dom elements according to the challenger
That means I had to create the dom elements as well and I was unable to figure out a way within the given character limit

I’m open for better answers
Clearly I failed in plain js
I’d love to see a plain js solution

JS is ok, it’s the DOM APIs that are verbose. I mean this is just to handle the enter key:
f.addEventListener('keypress',e=>{if(e.keyCode==000) etc()})Re: Show HN: A TO-DO app that fits inside a single tweet

Exactly these were the challenges I faced when using plain js

#17Code golf is generally the most interesting when the rules are specific enough that every entry has the same constraints.
In this case, "to-do app" and "general purpose library" are so general that it becomes a game of semantics. The winner will have the broadest definition of "general purpose" and narrowest definition of "app".
I don't think we should criticize the person who posted this. It was a silly prompt that was guaranteed to get controversial submissions that people would pick apart.

#18My version is even shorter and has a closing -tag and even -tags for the swag: new TodoApp({}); It's obviously just a concept and doesn't work yet (example.com, durr!) but it's in the same spirit. It only relies on a general purpose todo app library. Default options of course! (Which fortunately make it mount on body)
I golfed it down and fixed a few bugs for you:

Just a fun note: You can replace this
f.addEventListener('keypress',e=>{...})
f.onkeypress=e=>{...}

Ha ha I almost gave up and wanted to do the same But then I realized I’ll be able to figure it out It’s done for the challenge :)
I think you did it pretty well. Your codes pretty readable despite the constraints. Maybe just let the people know what you would've added or changed if you had a bit more space :)
